ppl with a yellow oz

i got my car back in may and about 2 months ago i notice that my bumper, side skirts and rear bumper have become a darker yellow than my door, fenders and hood. it doesnt really bother me b/c i'm gonna get my body kit painted. i just wanna know if it has happened before and due to what? ... not washing it often or waxing it?

I noticed a difference on mine too, and a difference on the inside of the door jams. I'm keeping mine clean and waxed to try to minimize the difference.

Wash ever week and wax about twice a month. Had it since March 02 and no problems with paint fading.

did you wax it at all?!? if you keep it clean and wax maybe once a month, it will help to avoid fading the yellow on the car and the skirts.
